In terms of how we will deal with the regional and fairness issues that Deputy Conway-Walsh has referred to, it will primarily be by ensuring that in the national development plan we have an allocation of our capital in a way that is consistent with the national planning framework. The goal of the national planning framework is how we drive regional development and the plan lays out goals. We will need to spend the increased capital that is available to deliver against the national development plan priorities that call out regional fairness.
